I disagree. Remember that the 1906 Marconi VelvetTone dkscs were
laminated, and I think a lot of the single sided black and silver discs
were also laminated as were a lot of the large note double sided discs.
The New Process was the 1923 name used at the introduction of the flag
label including the demo record 1-S.
